  1. Dear Sam,

    inspired by your presentation I started to test your examples. Your description of creating word documents is very promissing.
    All went fine until the multipart examples. I downloaded and installed the webarchive plugin, but this didn’t help. The result still is a document with all the mime information visible. I hope you can tell me what I’m doing wrong.
    Thanks! I’m using IE 6.0, Win2K and Word 2000

  2. Theo,

    Are you using the existing examples as is or are you creating a new doc based on the examples? The Multipart-MIME stuff is very sensitive–one character out of place and it’ll just display as plain text.

  3. Hi, could you tell me where you got the info for your example code in the download, namely lables01.cfm

    I need to create some labels of a different avery size.

    Hope you can help me out?!!

  4. Hi Richard,

    I got all of the information in the preso by doing “Save as HTML” within Word. To find out information about label sizing create a page of the desired labels, then do a “Save as HTML”, and view the generated HTML code. It will have all the sizing information ready for extraction and reuse.

    Best regards,

    Sam

  5. I’m looking for suggestions on getting the multi-part documents to work. I downloaded the code and can run everything except the multi-part examples. The document I am most interested in at this point is columns02.cfm. When I run it the Word document is generated – however, the contents are:

    “MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary=”—-=_e3555e646d”
    This document is a Multipart MIME message. If you are seeing this text then the message was not rendered properly.”

    Then, all the code is listed…

    I am running CFMX 6.1, Word 2000, IE 6.0
    I have downloaded and installed the webarchive plug-in you mention in the Breeze presentation.
    I have not modified the code one character.

    What am I missing?

  6. I am looking for the code examples for Serving Word by Neff. Are there other articles/examples to serve a document to MS Word from IE?
